Purpose
Fix an inconsistency where Spark did not recognize Paimon external tables as external in Spark-facing metadata.
Before this change, a Paimon table could already be stored as
table.type=EXTERNAL, but Spark-side logic relies on the reserved propertyTableCatalog.PROP_EXTERNALto classify a table as external. Because that property was not exposed fromPaimonSparkTableBase, Spark metadata output could report the wrong table type, such as showing a Paimon external table as managed inDESC FORMATTED.This change fixes that by exposing
PROP_EXTERNALfromPaimonSparkTableBasewhen the underlying Paimon table is external. That keeps Spark behavior consistent with the existing property-based contract already used by Spark-side commands likeSHOW TABLE EXTENDED.Tests
Adds a focused Hive catalog test to verify that:
